Bains,1,3 and J.J. Petkowski1 Abstract Thousands of exoplanets are known to orbit nearby stars. Plans for the next generation of space-based and ground-based telescopes are fueling the anticipation that a precious few habitable planets can be identified in the coming decade. Even more highly anticipated is the chance to find signs of life on these habitable planets by way of biosignature gases. But which gases should we search for? Although a few biosignature gases are prominent in Earth’s atmospheric spectrum (O2,CH4,N2O), others have been considered as being produced at or able to accumulate to higher levels on exo-Earths (e.g., dimethyl sulfide and CH3Cl).

Definition of High Hazard (HH) Gases For these guidelines, any gas meeting one or more of the following definitions based on International Fire Code (IFC) and National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) standards: 1.1. Flammable gas – a material that is a gas at 68ºF (20ºC) or less at an absolute pressure of 14.7 psi (101.325 kPa) when in a mixture of 13% or less by volume with air, or that has a flammable range at an absolute pressure of 14.7 psi (101.325 kPa) with air of at least 12%, regardless of the lower limit 1.2. Pyrophoric gas – a gas with an autoignition temperature in air at or below 130ºF (54.4ºC) 1.3. Health Hazard 3 (HH3) gas – material that, under emergency conditions and according to the standards, can cause serious or permanent injury 1.4. Health Hazard 4 (HH4) gas – material that, under emergency conditions and according to the standards, can be lethal The storage and usage of a gas or gases meeting any of the above definitions must follow all applicable IFC and NFPA guidelines and the requirements outlined in this document. Consult EH&S for specific guidance on gas mixtures containing corrosive, flammable or poisonous gas components (ex. 1% carbon monoxide/nitrogen, 5% hydrogen sulfide/helium). 2.

  • Atis D1ex-IR Combustible Gas Transmitter
    IR Combustible Gas Detection Infrared detection of methane and other combustible gases is a reliable technique that avoids potential sensor poisoning. In addition, IR sensors are inherently “failsafe”, providing fast detection of a sensor failure. ATI’s Model D12Ex-IR provides this IR detection capability in an explosion-proof package suitable for almost any industrial environment. Model D12Ex-IR Gas Transmitter IR Combustible Gas or CO2 Detection D12Ex-IR transmitters provide analog signals for remote interface and optional relays for local alarming functions. Two digital communication options, Modbus™ and Hart™, are also available. Certified for use in explosion hazard areas, the unit provides rapid and reliable detection of hazardous conditions so that protective measures can be activated. The D12Ex-IR is also available with an infrared sensor designed for CO2 measurements in ambient air or in pumped gas samples. Two carbon dioxide sensors may be specified, one for low range use and another for higher levels of CO2. The low range sensor may be scaled from 0-1000 PPM minimum to 0-5% maximum, while the high range sensor covers ranges from 0-10% minimum to 0-50% maximum. SENSOR SELECTION The basic sensing element installed in the D12Ex-IR sensor housing is selected based on the measuring application. Four sensors are available PROGRAMMED HYDROCARBONS as follows: In addition to methane, the D12Ex-IR may be used HC Low level hydrocarbon sensor designed to monitor for a wide variety of combustible gases for detecting methane, propane, and and vapors. The unit is factory programmed with various other flammable gases in air, response factors (K Factor) to adjust the unit for other below their respective LEL.
